It means to become a firm believer in something, to accept an argument or philosophy wholeheartedly or blindly without critical examination. Critical examination means to look at the facts and to draw conclusions based solely on those facts without having to create facts to fill in the blanks...

"What Liebman envisions would raise business costs enormously." I don't think it would raise business costs at all. I think it would simply result in even more businesses closing up shop and moving overseas, which would lower business costs. It might also have a slight negative effect on...

Well, I can't comment on that freight specifically, but if it's not required to be placarded, then it's not required to be marked as HAZMAT on the BOL. In fact, if it's not HAZMAT (no placards required) and the HM column is marked on the BOL, then the BOL is incorrect and should be changed...

I honestly don't know if it's in the book or not, and I'm too lazy to look it up, but I would imagine that it's not in there. The reason is, the FMSCA regulations themselves already define HAZMAT, and the book deals with HAZMAT as already defined in the regulations. The test question is...

"If you are in a car, get parked, get your seat belt on, get as low as you can in the vehicle, get a jacket or a blanket to cover yourself up with, and your odds of survival are better than if you are outside in the ditch," Sabones said. "On the other hand, if you are in a Sprinter, get yourself...

Fuel tank capacity (gallons) : 1 Full load fuel consumption (gallons/hour) : 3.5 Whooweee that's gonna end up being one expensive generator.

That's because the image isn't actually uploaded to EO. What you posted was the link to the picture, not the picture itself, so it's really just hotlinked. The picture's URL, instead of being hosted at EO, is at: http://tapatalk.com/mu/aefc9cc8-43bb-cf7f.jpg When you post a pic to EO...

That image is 1590 wide by 951 high. Anything over 640 wide (620 wide according to the server software) breaks most browsers.

Moose nailed it. If a HAZMAT load is under 1001lbs and does not require a placard, then it's not HAZMAT. If it's not HAZMAT, you don't need a HAZMAT endorsement to pick it up. The litmus test for HAZMAT is whether or not it requires a placard. If it does, then it's HAZMAT, if it doesn't, then...

It's almost as bad as Perot's "You people." Right-wind social engineering? Does Newt do drugs? I hope so.

Oh, excellent! :D I read it on the Internet, so it must be true!

Someone once told me... Whoops.

I personally feel that those two parties should keep their dispute private and not post about it at all, considering that its nothing but a bunch of he-said/she-said hearsay and allegations in most of these situations. Facts would be great in these disputes, but they're usually what is in...

Actually you did when you said you started the other thread because you wanted to warn people and help them out because you give a flying f about everyone here, when in reality it was started in order to exact revenge by damaging the person and his company in calling John a liar, dancing around...

That's is... keep digging... you'll dig yourself out of that hole eventually.

Oh, there are better ways. But they cost money. :D

Factcheck, snopes, there's a bunch of 'em already out there doing exactly what he wants. If you go beyond that and start censoring free speech and freedom of the press, on a bazillion different Web sites and two bazillion Usenet newservers, you're better off trying to bail out a sinking...

Getting inappropriately touched at the airport was one of the reasons I accept loads to Laredo. If it gets to hot, you just go over to the airport and hang out, as it were.

Well, crap. Now I've got nothing to do when I'm stuck in Laredo.
